## Abstract To improve the accuracy of tissue structural and architectural characterization with diffusion tensor imaging, a novel smoothing technique is developed for reducing noise in diffusion tensor images. The technique extends the traditional anisotropic diffusion filtering method by allowing

This study aimed to assess the effect of diffusion-weighted image (DWI) quality on abdominal apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) measurements and the usefulness of anisotropic images. Twenty-six patients (10 men and 16 women; mean, 58.1 years) who underwent DW imaging and were diagnosed not to have
## Abstract A new magnetic resonance imaging technique for evaluating anisotropic and restricted diffusion effects in a single experiment is described. The method is based on a pulse sequence that simultaneously excites a spin echo (SE) and a stimulated echo (STE) and contains two pairs of diffusio
